About This Boat

Join us on board Penzance's finest angling boat. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned angler, all are welcome. If you want a 2 hour mackerelling trip or to fish the wrecks up to 60 miles offshore, or even to spend a day shark fishing, we can find you the fish you want to catch. We can provide all the gear you need, or you are welcome to bring your own. Penzance is perfectly located in the south west tip of the country and fishing from here allows you access to the Western Approaches - some of the best angling in the country. Our boat offers a large deck area so lots of space to fish - we never take more than 12 so no tangles, just a truly memorable fishing trip.

TRIPS

Celtic Fox is a fast comfortable boat which enables us to spend more time fishing and less time steaming. If necessary, we have the speed to travel further to find the fish. We can supply all the tackle, rods and bait that you might need. The boat is very well appointed and provides ample space both outside and in to make your experience more enjoyable.

Below is a selection of our more regular trips; however we pride ourselves on being flexible and are happy to offer longer trips including night fishing as we are licensed to be out day or night up to 60 miles offshore.

8 hour tripOn this trip we can fish anywhere up to 30 miles offshore. Wreck or reef, species or shark fishing we can do it all and because our boat is fast you get more time fishing and less time steaming. The cooker and kettle are often on to make your trip a comfortable experience.
